Went to Reed to find a job locally to me. I told her I wanted a receptionist/admin post. She gave me a withering look and told me most of these posts are given internally and companies won't pay Reed to find people to fill these types of posts. After telling her I don't have a CV, she then asked me to send my CV in to her. She never took my name or asked for any details about me. She obviously couldn't be bothered to help a 58 yr old lady with years of experience including working in a recruitment agency, as she probably thought I was a lost cause. I was in the room about 3 mins and came out utterly deflated. Never go to to a recruitment agency unless you are about 20 yrs old with a degree and with no working experience. An utter disgrace to the recruitment world. Ageism abound in this place.
